Now starting restoration project. Please could someone advise the FRAME paint colour for a FZ750 1FN ?
it's some sort of grey metallic but we must have a consensus here on what looks right even if not perfect.
thank you

Don't think you are being ignored mate. If no one has an answer then they just won't put anything.

If you're talking about the red and silver paint job then the frame was black. It looks like the Blue and White, and the Red and White model had a Grey frame colour so it depends on your bodywork paint colour. And no I don't have any paint codes.

Wheaty Hiya we were talking about the grey/ anthracite frame colour, i think all the 2mg models had it

After a little bit more thought, it looks like the Pure Sports models (or 1FN) is split between 1985 models and 1986 models. The 1985 models had no bellypan, with gold touches on the engine case parts and were generally red and silver with a BLACK FRAME, were-as the 1986 models did have a small bellypan, silver touches on the engine cases and some were blue\red and white with a GREY\SILVER FRAME, (there are other paint schemes within these models but I'm not going to name them all). If you are going to talk about the 2MG model (what I class as the Genesis model) then the frame will have aluminium passenger footrest brackets and dogbone suspension linkages and as far as I'm aware also had grey/silver frame colour. I know that this doesn't help with the frame colour but it may be worth deciphering exactly which model year you have first. Hope this helps. Wheaty

Take the bottom engine cradle into a paint shop and get them to match it . Is it really that critical that the colour is slighly off factory colour ?
